Meme de Omonk
I never seem to write on here any more. I noticed that Josh made himself a meme so I asked him ( omonk ) to make me a meme. Apparently he thought 10 questions was enough. So, here goes...
MEME of DOOM
1.- Do “the Holidays” make you happy or depress you? Why? Neither. They are just stressful times in the year. Money to be spent, time to stretch, and people to please. Maybe now that I am an adult, all the 'magic' is gone...I don't know.
2.- What’s your favorite holiday memory from childhood? Probably the time that I got a bike for Christmas. My parents had hidden it in the garage and told me to go turn the water heater off. I didn't know why, but I went to do it. I swear I walked right past the bike...even moved it out of my way and didn't pay any attention to it. I turned off the water heater and came back inside. I am so blonde.
3.-Do you have any really bad/crazy holiday memories? What are they and are holidays always “crazy” for you? I don't think I have any bad or crazy holiday memories. Most holidays actually seem to go pretty smoothly really. But they always seem crazy until they are over.
4.- Are you going black Friday shopping? Do you ever go out on black Friday? Why do you think they call it that anyway? Have you ever been shopping that day? If you had, you would know why they call it Black Friday. It's like shopping in hell. I may have been shopping on a black Friday before, but nothing comes to mind. I do remember that the last day I worked at Target before having Tabs was black Friday. They stuck me in the electronics department for some reason...god knows why. Soon as the doors opened, it was just like watching a movie where everyone runs from Zombies...people running (literally) in like they had to buy a toaster to save their lives.
5.- Is there anything you really want for X-mas? Not something unobtainable like world peace, but something personal and selfish just for you. Do you think you’ll get it? More books, maybe? I need to finish that Sookie Stackhouse series. I know I am a nerd. Maybe some beef jerky? I don't really want anything. Everyone knows coffee and books make me happy. I am sure I'll get some coffee.
6.- Do you like Christmas Music? If so, why, and if not, why? I love Christmas music!!!! I used to say that when I made my first album it was going to be Christmas music. I don't know what it is about it, but I love it.
7.-Have you ever made a giant penis out of snow? If you don’t have access to snow, would you make one if you could? Would you take stupid pictures of it and put it on Facebook? You know that I have never had that much access to snow...only seen it once and it was just a little and mushy. But, yes...I totally would. One day we will move to Ohio and Carlette will help me make a giant penis out of snow and we will take lewd pictures with it.
8.- How do you feel about stuffing IN the turkey? I mean, you’re basically eating bread crumbs that were stuffed INSIDE of an animals body cavity. Doesn’t that sound gross to you? If you do eat it, how does eating the heart and guts sound too then??! Ok...I admit that I PREFER the stuffing that was inside the turkey. It is more moist and yummy. Heart and guts? If you paid me enough. Remember that time I signed up to eat bull testicles for $1,000.00? I was never picked for that, though.
9.-Have you ever had fried turkey? Have you ever had anything else inappropriate that shouldn’t be fried? (twinkey, broccoli, fried human foot, fried snow penis etc)? Yes, I have had fried turkey. It's nummy (om nom nom). My favorite is smoked turkey, though. No, I have never had anything fried that shouldn't be...but I am southern and would totally eat anything that was fried.
10.-Because it’s thanksgiving, and while it’s really a holiday founded on the exploitation and abuse of American Indians, lets ask: What are you thankful for? This is where I am supposed to say family and friends, right? I am always thankful for those around me. I am actually surrounded by people I love right now in my life. I know there have been times that I didn't always make the best friend choices, but right now I think I am doing pretty well in that area. To be honest, I don't have much REALLY to say I am thankful for right now. I mean, I could say health and all that too...but I guess I am just pretty complacent right now. That's the right word, right? Just going with the flow right now....I am sounding really horrible, aren't I?
you know what I am really grateful for right now? I am grateful that other people are healthy and happy. Just look at the people on my FB and LJ friends lists. People are getting engaged or married. Having beautiful healthy babies all around me. I know some people who have gotten great jobs recently.
I also know people who haven't had it as great or as easy lately. But they have me and that's good enough, right? I mean, if you have some Hollie, life is good.
